Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

After delivering the message, Ezio put down his gear, turned and left Altaïr's library.

But Song Ren has not recovered from the plot of the game.

The entire plot is extremely long, no shorter than the previous "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption".

Even if Song Ren didn't care about the content of the branch line in the middle, there was also the gameplay of clearing strongholds and ancient tombs.

It took nearly 40 hours for the main story alone to get here.

From a dude-like existence, he grew into a legendary master assassin.

Ezio's life is too legendary, too magnificent.

He reinvigorated the Roman Assassin Order, created the Brotherhood, and summarized the Assassin's legacy of craftsmanship.

Finally, when he was old, in order to pursue the truth and the truth, Ezio went to the holy place of the assassins without hesitation, looking for the secrets left by Altaïr.

And finally in the library, he completed his mission and had a dialogue with Desmond that spanned thousands of years.

He didn't quit the game immediately, Song Ren just waited quietly for the player list to finish playing.

Because he is looking forward to the easter egg content in the follow-up game.

This is also a norm in the game industry, putting something like an epilogue at the end of the list of people.

For example, in "Red Dead Redemption", Mary went to visit Arthur's grave, and Inspector Ross found John Marston's ranch; "Uncharted" ended with Drake and Elena's family of three.

Listening to the pure tone called 'Ezio's House', after about ten minutes, a screen appeared in the game.

The gray-haired, old and disfigured Ezio sat alone on a bench in the Piazza where his father and brother were executed forty-five years ago, in Florence, quietly staring into the distance.

'You should stay home. ’ Sophia took her daughter and looked at Ezio with concern.

'This is my home. ' Ezio smiled.

The family chatted for a while, and Sophia took her daughter to the nearby store to buy.

At this time, a young man came over and sat next to Ezio. He complained about the woman in Florence and said that he wanted to go to Rome.

Ezio wearily replied that it wasn't Florence's problem, before coughing violently.

The young man grabbed Ezio's hand, encouraged him to have courage, gave Ezio a concerned smile to let Ezio rest, and then turned away.

Ezio was still breathing heavily, but calmed down when he looked at Sofia in the distance.

At the same time, Ezio's monologue sounded.

'When I was young...'

'I had freedom, but I did not see it;'

'I had time, but I didn't know it;'

'I had love, but I didn't feel it;'

‘After decades of time testing, I finally understand the true meaning of the three. ’

'I am dying, and this understanding has gradually turned into a kind of satisfaction. ’

'Love, freedom and time, once squandered by me, are now my driving force. ’

'And I dedicate my most special love to you dearest and to our children, and to the brothers and sisters of the League of Assassins. ’

'And to the marvelous and wonderful world that gives us life. ’

'This love is eternal, my dear Sofia - Ezio Auditore. ’

Finally, Ezio leaned on the reclining chair in front of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers and closed his eyes peacefully.

………………

Coming out of the game warehouse, Song Ren felt as if he had passed away, which filled him with emotion.

The main character is dead!

Altaïr and Ezio knew how to die. Although there was still one Desmond left, Song Ren felt that if there was a sequel in the future, this Desmond would not be much better.

The only thing that makes Song Ren more satisfied is that the final death methods of Altaïr and Ezio in the game are relatively good.

Looking at all the dead male protagonists of Nebula Games, Ezio should be the one with the best ending. As for Altaïr, he should also be able to rank second.

Three different eras, different assassins.

Each left a deep impression on Song Ren.

As for the most impressive, it is naturally Ezio.

Not only the three assassins in Assassin's Creed, Song Ren felt that this was definitely a Nebula game, and even one of the most impressive characters he had ever played in a game.

As for why?

Because it is too complete.

Young, middle-aged, old, and finally Ezio, who died peacefully, the entire game took dozens of hours to perfectly show Ezio's life.

From the debauchery in his youth to the tragedy of his family, and his loss of reason because of revenge, he finally grew into a mature and wise master assassin, and finally died peacefully.

Although in the game, his role is only a microphone, but his life can only be described as magnificent.

And Altaïr is the same, the story flow about Altaïr belongs to additional DLC content.

But it shows Altaïr's story from confusion to assassin mentor very well.

At the beginning, he was arrogant and conceited, but then he understood the mission of the assassin, and even his behavior changed the later assassins, including Ezio's uncle Mario and other assassins were deeply influenced by Altaïr, and he also improved Assassin's Hidden Blade, so that later assassins do not have to endure the pain of severed fingers.

As for Desmond, although he is the most insignificant assassin in the game, as the game progresses, players remember this character.

At the beginning, he was not willing to accept being an assassin, even if he joined Lucy and others, but in fact he still didn't think he was an assassin and how important he was.

Sadness and remorse took over Desmond's heart until he was controlled by Juno in the Forerunners and killed Lucy Shock with his own hands.

Trapped in the animus, he reflects on his life, his family, and his role as an assassin for most of his life. Finally, through the memories and experiences of Ezio and Altaïr, he finally came to enlightenment.

Realizing that his comfortable life was long over, he had to face the reality that he was an assassin, and he decided not to run away to find the Great Temple and to find a way to stop the world from being destroyed.

………………

At the same time, players are also immersed in the gameplay of "Assassin's Creed" and the plot.

Nebula Gaming's lounge.

"By the way, the DLC trilogy of Mr. Chen's "Uncharted Sea" has been tested." Meng Zuo said to Chen Xu when he thought of something.

After the Assassin's Creed content was completed, they moved on to the development of the previous Uncharted DLC.

For such a long time, the development of the trilogy has basically been completed and tested.

"Well, let's wait until next week to release it to players." Chen Xu nodded lightly and said, after all, "Assassin's Creed" has not been online for a long time, and players' pockets should be empty. Sales of Assassin's Creed will be affected.

As for why the time point is set in the next week?

Because the 20th has passed by then, generally speaking, more companies will start paying wages at this time, and players will have money in their pockets.

"Then Mr. Chen, what are our plans for the next step, the DLC content of "Assassin's Creed"?" Yang Xin also looked at Chen Xu curiously and said.

Although the "Assassin's Creed" has just been released not long ago, there is basically no content to be developed, mainly to fix some follow-up content bugs.

In addition to the related peripherals of "Assassin's Creed", various arrangements are also being made.

For Nebula Games, games are currently one of the main revenue sources, but the revenue from peripherals over the years should not be underestimated.

"In the follow-up, I will assign a team to me, and then cooperate with Halloween and Double Eleven to give players the game for the entire event." Chen Xu thought for a while and said.

"Halloween, Double Eleven event!?" Meng Zuo, Qin Yi, and Yang Xin all put down the handles in their hands, turned their heads and looked at Chen Xu with confused eyes.

"The Nebula game platform has been offering spring specials and New Year's specials for a long time. It is estimated that players are not new, and why only e-commerce can do Double Eleven, why can't our game companies do it?"

"And in the past two years, our main focus has been on Universal VR and Switch. Players on the PC platform have eaten a lot of cold food, and this event will also take PC players to do it together. They were a big surprise." Chen Xu explained to the crowd with a smile.

Looking at Chen Xu's expression, everyone was at a loss for words.

Surprise, really surprise?

Hooked up with Halloween, can this really be a surprise?
